This week's finds…

PublishedMarch 28, 2009

I asked the kids today what they were looking forward to the most when this project is over. I realize that’s actually kind of cruel with over a week to go but I was kind of curious. My eldest is longing for Oreo cookies , my middle one want a great big bag of Ruffles All Dressed potato chips and my daughter wants Ranch Crispers. Even with concerted effort at baking homemade cookies, clearly they are pining for that which I I truly cannot replicate at home.

Our March Break indulgences are really hitting home now. With only $15 to month-end, here are some great grocery bargains I found yesterday:

That’s about all the grocery store-hopping my wallet and I can handle. Pantry pickings are pretty slim. I am officially out of rice, almost out of flour and really stretching out those 4 eggs, 1/4 lb of butter and 4L of milk! Yet, there is still a whole chicken in the freezer for dinner Sunday night.
